Residents of Njia ward expressed relief for having their long-time cry of scarcity of water heard and acted upon by the county government led by Governor Kawira Mwangaza.
Mwangaza conducted a mass distribution of water tanks and pipes at Muutine Chief’s Camp on Wednesday to all areas in Njia Ward, Igembe Central.
She noted that the county government has donated thirteen tanks to thirteen Njuri Cheke houses, namely Rikiau, Kiujuline, Nkaria Muiko, Ndoleli, Mwenjelene, Ntabari, Njoune, Kiruumo, Kabuitu, Miori, Muuro, Thiitha, and Kathithi.
“The County Government has also donated ten thousand-liter tanks and pipes to the following boreholes; KK Muuti, Cattledip, Kaumone, Mwiyo, Thamare, Thuuru, Ntui, and Kwa Ntorukunga,” the county boss stated.
Mwangaza also gave a brand new motorcycle to the Umoja self-help group. She maintained that she is working hard to make Njia ward better, citing the ongoing construction of a perimeter wall at Muringene Market and the construction of the Thamare Dispensary maternity room.
She further called upon members of the county assembly to support her leadership to ensure adequate service delivery to the residents of Meru County.
